Guide>Movies>sort by airing: "There was an unexpected error"

Server Version#:
Player Version#:

If I go to Plex Web interface, “Live TV and DVR”, select “Guide”, then choose Movies in the first dropdown, choose “By Airing” in the third drop down then I seem to get some sort of list of Movies I already have and movies coming on on TV.

I’m not clear why I’d want to see movies that I already have - but that’s a question for another day.

My problem is that If I select “By Airing” again in order to flip the sort around, I see a vague error that says “something went wrong”.

But how do I find out what went wrong? Nothing obviously an error is logged in the PMS Log.

The browser console logs this:

Hello,
I am having the exact same issue as Elbow.
As soon as I choose Movies in the guide.
There was an unexpected error.

Thank you for any help you can provide!

Hello,

I have exactly the same problem, when chosen movies I get unexpected error. Now also the home screen is having the same problem.

Has anyone figured this one out? When it happen before, refreshing the guide seemed to resolve it. Not this time. Also tried a server reboot.
Linux running: plexmediaserver-1.15.4.993-bb4a2cb6c.x86_64.rpm

Same thing is happening here on Win10 (1903)

I also see this on my Mac - have done for ages. Sometimes I can get round it by using the web app, but that’s not a solution.
